mitt romney released his 2010 tax returns after midnight. they showed that on top of being one of the wealthiest candidates to ever run for president, he is also paying much less in taxes than any other candidate on the trail. romney's taxes show that he made more than $21 million in 2010. now that's seven times the income of challenger newt gingrich. and $20 million more than what president obama made. after taking out more than $4 million in itemized deductions, it looks like romney wound up paying just more than $3 million in taxes. now that equals out, if we were to put it in percentages, to a tax cut rate of about 14%, 13.9%. that's about half of what gingrich paid. now the reason why romney pays so little is because most of his profit is from dividends or interest on investments. much of which are foreign holdings. he also invests heavily in family trusts, and until last year invested in a swiss bank account. romney also donates a significant amount to charity, nearly $3 million last year alone. his largest donation was to the mormon c
